Enjoying a cup of tea

After a busy week I was happy to have my latest issue of Somerset Life arrive in the mail on Friday morning. Perfect time for having a nice peaceful cup of tea and a flick through the magazine.
I was sitting at the kitchen table and looked up and saw a great reflection in the bottom of the mirror.


It was the reflection of my Family Photo wall.
I love seeing this wall of everchanging photos of my family.

Pretty cup and seaglass from my local Mt. Martha beach on the kitchen table

Love the colour of this wall

I often change over the photos in the frames.
The top 3 photos are wedding shots.
On the left is my parents wedding which was a double wedding shared with my mothers sister.
The middle photo is of my own wedding
The last photo is of Max's Nanna and Pops wedding
The wall to the left of my Family Photo wall has on old meat safe cupboard against it.
I have been tempted to paint it white but so far I haven't done it.
I love the painted canvas on this wall that has a lovely quote on it.
Family Faces are magic mirrors
Looking at people who belong to us
we see the past present and future.
I can't remember where I first saw this quote but I loved it and painted it on the canvas.
Lots of visitors have copied this quote and done it for their own homes
There is a photo of my son Michael taken when he did his army training
Love this old table I use in the kitchen.
Got it for $5.00 at a garage sale. As you can see by all of the cuts and splashes in the table top it was used in a shed as a work bench
I love all of its imperfections
Love the timber and paint left on the legs
Hope everyone has a great weekend
